How many jumps does it take? Ladder Method 1 2 3 KILO 1000 Units HECTO 100 Units DEKA 10 Units DECI 0.1 Unit Meters Liters Grams CENTI 0.01 Unit MILLI 0.001 Unit How do you use the “ladder” method? 1st – Determine your starting point. 2nd – Count the “jumps” to your ending point. 3rd – Move the decimal the same number of jumps in the same direction. 4 km = _________ m Starting Point Ending Point How many jumps does it take? 4. 1 __. 2 __. 3 __. = 4000 m

Conversion Practice Try these conversions using the ladder method. 1000 mm = _______ gm 1 m = _______ mm 160 cm = _______ mm 14 km = _______ m 109 l = _______ km 250 m = _______ km Compare using <, >, or =. 56 cm 6 m 7 l 698 mm

Metric Conversion Challenge Try these conversions, using the ladder method. 10) 2000 mm = _______ M 15) 5 M = _______ mm 20) 16 cm = _______ mm 11) 104 km = _______ m 16) 198 M = _______ kgm 21) 2500 m = _______ km

Compare using <, >, or =. 25) 63 cm 6 m 27) 5 m 508 mm 29) 1,500 mm 1.5 m 26) 536 cm 53.6 dm 28) 43 mm 5 m
